Looks like Florida, Georgia, the Carolinas and Virginia could all be in the path..
Houston and Navy is potentially going to be impacted.

Also Virginia Tech @ UNC at 3:30 as well as Army @ Duke. The Tech-UNC game has serious Coastal Division title implications.

Because Houston is gonna go up there declare martial law and sink their battle ships, its an H-Town takeover baby.

LSU @ Florida with a noon kickoff as well... I'm guessing if it has too much of an impact then the game could be moved to Baton Rouge, like the SC game was last year.

Possibly the UCF vs Tulane game Friday.
7PM Michigan at Rutgers could be a mess.

And the weather might not be great either!
how about UMass @ Old Dominion- 6pm kick off in Norfolk. Really about 6-7 games total.

The NHC's cone of DOOM. Track subject to change based on the whims of the meterologists, the models, and God Almighty:

(Note: I think this graphic updates so if you read this in a week and it shows a dead depression in Newfoundland, that's why)

From this graphic it looks like the Florida games will be in the clear by Saturday, unless the hurricane causes extensive damage in cities with games. The games most seriously threatened would appear to be the ones in the Carolinas.

And perhaps the Tulane @ UCF game Friday Night. Orlando being more inland might keep things from a not being played standpoint, but I imagine the weather to make for a messy game and low attendance. I could also see this end up being moved to Saturday to avoid the storm since it will be contending with the Carolinas and Virginia by then.
South Carolina/UGA probably being moved. Likely in Columbia Sunday/Monday night or cancelled altogether.

Didn't Clemson and Notre Dame have weather issues last year?

High School football games are being moved to Thursday night in Fayetteville, NC. The storm is expected to hit 8 AM on Saturday. I don't see how these games don't get moved.
I am going to get clobbered. the track has center 25 miles from my house.
Maybe, maybe not. Florida is going to be on the weaker side of the storm, unless you live in The Bahamas.
Reportedly if the South Carolina/Georgia game is changed they will play in Atlanta. I can't see how they could consciously hold the game if things stand pat due to the fact that the lane reversal on I26 for evacuations ends at I77 and would have significant impacts on gameday traffic, not to mention the fact that all of the Troopers needed are going to be deployed to the lowstate for the reversal and other hurricane duties.

SC State's home game vs Bethune-Cookman has been postponed. No makeup date announced. SC State will play their first home game of the season next week.

The Citadel has moved it's game against North Greenville to Thursday and will play @ North Greenville instead at Johnson-Haygood.

Charleston Southern has postponed it's game against Albany State.

Clemson plays @ BC on Friday, Wofford is @ Western Carolina, Presbyterian is @ Gardner-Webb and Coastal Carolina has an open date. Impacts to Furman's game at home vs Samford should be minimal unless Matthew tracks further west than predicted. If that's the case most of South Carolina has bigger concerns than any football game.
